A web accelerator is a software application that speeds up a site usually by caching content and supplying it instead of the web server. Such apps may be employed for both static and dynamic sites because there are a variety of accelerators that can cache both static content and database calls and responses. The advantage of using a web accelerator is that a given site will perform noticeably faster without employing extra resources. Quite the opposite, this kind of a site will demand a lesser amount of resources to work because the web accelerator will deal with most requests instead of the web server. Unlike many firms that don't offer web accelerators with their plans or offer just one, we offer three different ones which will permit you to speed up your sites regardless of their type or content.

Web Accelerators in Shared Website Hosting

When you host your Internet sites in a shared website hosting account from our company, you shall have three popular web accelerators to pick from if you'd like to enhance the sites' efficiency. Memcached is employed for database-driven websites and it caches the calls and requests between an Internet site and its database, so it can lessen the load of such sites considerably. Varnish caches whole webpages the first time a website visitor opens them and provides them from there on if the same website visitor opens them again. It does that considerably faster than the server, so it could increase the loading speed of any website up to 300%. Node.js is an object-oriented platform for real-time apps which works on the web server and not within the visitor's Internet browser. It is used for holiday accommodation booking, chats and other applications where loads of data has to be processed in real time. The availability of those accelerators depends on the hosting package which you choose - they might come by default or as an upgrade. In each case, you shall be able to include more instances or more memory for each one of them.

Web Accelerators in Semi-dedicated Servers

If you choose one of our semi-dedicated server plans, you shall be able to use Varnish, Memcached and Node.js - three effective web accelerators. Varnish is a multi-purpose program which caches webpages the first time a site visitor opens them and provides them instead of the hosting server if the visitor opens them again approximately 300% faster. Memcached caches API and database calls and responses so that the hosting server doesn't need to process every request, that makes it suitable for database-driven sites, for example ones built with Joomla™ or WordPress. Node.js is used to build web programs that operate in real-time such as chats or accommodation booking portals and it processes every bit of information the moment the user types it instead of waiting for big portions of info to be accumulated. The Hepsia CP that comes with our semi-dedicated plans will permit you to select how many instances of each and every accelerator shall work at a time and what amount of memory they'll use.

Web Accelerators in VPS Servers

We offer Memcached, Node.js and Varnish with all VPS servers that are obtained with the Hepsia CP. Your web server will also come with a few hundred MBs of dedicated memory for these accelerators and the exact amount would depend on the package deal that you select. Memcached is employed for script-driven Internet sites because it caches database responses, thus lowering the amount of queries which a script sends to its database. It could be employed for any script including WordPress or Joomla™. Node.js is a highly effective platform for creating web applications such as booking websites and chats. The real-time interaction between end users and a web server is carried out by processing small parts of data as soon any user inputs anything on the webpage. In contrast, other platforms await customers to enter a considerable amount of data before they process it, thus they operate slowly. Varnish is a multi-purpose accelerator that caches entire pages and provides them instead of the web server at a much faster rate. It is also often called an HTTP reverse proxy and it can speed up any sort of site.

Web Accelerators in Dedicated Servers

In case you acquire a dedicated server from our firm and you pick Hepsia as the hosting Control Panel, you will be able to use Node.js, Memcached and Varnish for your Internet sites. All packages include several gigabytes of memory dedicated to these accelerators and the specific amount depends on the package deal that you select. Node.js is used for scalable online applications like browser games or hotel booking and it processes the data instantly as the user enters it, which makes it much faster than similar platforms. Memcached caches database and API responses, so if you use it for a script-driven Internet site, not only will the website speed up, but also the load on the server will decline as there shall be fewer database queries to be processed. Varnish also caches content, but it isn't limited to databases. Instead, it caches whole web pages once a visitor opens them and provides them instead of the hosting server each time the same visitor opens them later on. Due to the fact that Varnish processes web requests much faster than any web server, the efficiency of a website using this accelerator could increase as much as 300%.
